Historic Annapolis, Maryland located squarely in the Chesapeake Bay watershed is home and a never-ending source of inspiration for Annapolis Candle founders Michael and Jenny Waldon. With a passion for creating home fragrance inspired by water+earth, the duo of chandlers considers each candle they make to be an element of coastal living. Their mission is to create affordable, desirable candles, made with exceptionally refined ingredients that will bring any living space a little bit closer to the coastline! Michael and Jenny (along with nearly 18 million Americans) call the Chesapeake Bay region home. This incredibly unique watershed is fed by over 100,0000 streams, creeks and rivers that provide endless inspiration for the essential elements of our home fragrance collections.

Established painter, Kim Hovell, collaborated with the artisans at Annapolis Candle to create a one-of-a-kind marriage of art and fragrance. Kim is inspired by the colors and textures of the waterways and beaches of her native Maryland. Most well-known for her abstract oyster paintings and soothing color palette, her work has become a staple in many coastal homes. Combining the bright and briny fragrances of Annapolis Candle and Kim's well-loved art, this collection is designed to bring you just a little closer to the shore.
